APC Smart-UPS Ultra 3000VA Lithium-Ion Rack/Tower 230V

The APC Smart-UPS Ultra 3000VA Lithium-Ion Rack/Tower (SRTL3KRM1UXLI) represents a significant architectural departure from traditional valve-regulated lead-acid UPS designs, employing a lithium-ion battery chemistry that delivers a dramatically reduced footprint at just 1U of rack space. Operating at 230V with a 2700W power output and a unity power factor, this unit is engineered for modern high-density computing environments where rack space is a finite and critical resource. The lithium-ion cell chemistry enables a substantially longer service life compared to conventional VRLA alternatives, with the battery retaining charge capacity across a greater number of charge-discharge cycles, reducing planned maintenance interventions over the operational lifespan of the unit.

The Smart-UPS Ultra features APC's line-interactive double-boost AVR topology, which actively corrects both high and low voltage fluctuations without switching to battery, preserving battery cycle life for outage events. The unit supports a SmartConnect cloud management interface, enabling remote monitoring, firmware updates, and predictive diagnostics through APC's cloud platform without requiring an additional network management card in the base configuration. An integrated LCD interface provides local visibility into input/output voltage, load percentage, battery charge state, and runtime estimates, while the USB and SmartSlot expansion bay allow integration into broader DCIM and building management ecosystems.

Designed explicitly for edge deployments, branch offices, distributed IT infrastructure, and space-constrained data centre environments, the SRTL3KRM1UXLI ships in a convertible rack/tower form factor that accommodates both horizontal rack mounting and vertical tower placement without additional hardware. The reduced physical weight compared to equivalent VRLA units simplifies logistics for field deployments and reduces structural load on remote or lightweight racking. With its combination of compact 1U profile, lithium-ion longevity, and intelligent cloud-connected management, this model addresses the operational requirements of modern edge computing, telecommunications closets, and critical small-footprint server environments.

Ideal for

• Edge computing node protection in retail, manufacturing, or branch office locations where rack space is limited to a single 1U slot and extended battery service life reduces the frequency of on-site maintenance visits
• Hyperconverged infrastructure appliance protection in remote or unmanned data rooms, leveraging SmartConnect cloud monitoring to enable remote health checks and alerting without local IT staff
• Telecommunications and network equipment protection in IDF/MDF closets where the rack/tower convertible form factor accommodates non-standard cabinet configurations
• Micro data centre deployments requiring a high power-density UPS solution that minimises physical footprint while delivering full 2700W output capacity at unity power factor
• Healthcare and clinical IT edge environments where predictable battery performance, reduced weight, and long cycle life support compliance with equipment lifecycle management requirements
• Virtual desktop infrastructure or thin-client server rooms requiring clean, regulated 230V power with AVR capability to protect against brownouts and voltage sags common in older building electrical infrastructure
